Hawking explained: Your eyes see an ILLUSION - your brain constructs reality
Do you think you see the real world? Stephen Hawking explained why you don't. In this video, we discuss how your brain literally creates the reality you see—filling in blind spots, correcting eye movements, and constructing a three-dimensional world from a flat image on the retina.
Learn why color exists only in your brain. Why neuroscientists call normal perception a controlled hallucination. And why Hawking said there is no single objective reality directly accessible to our senses.
